Basement Exploring
In dusk dwells her soul
wondering
why daylight would
want a home
here.
In shadow shivers her heart
knowing
another minute
will bring the beginning
of the nothing
painted on her bedroom wall.
In dread hides her mind
veiling
demons and dead creatures
waiting in the
cracks.
And still.
She cannot move.
